NOID Cattleya aka Pretty in Purple n Pink

I am celebrating my birthday very early this year (I turn 39 again in mid-october). I ordered my greenhouse this morning, and to celebrate I bought myself a couple plants. A local orchid store owner and I sit and visit every so often and this is one from her private collection. I saw the flower and didn't even bother to look for a tag. I doubt i'll know it's name until I repot. Normally I don't worry about plants from trusted places, but while looking for a tag I found alot of scale hiding here and there. Always gotta keep an eye out for those critters!
